Do your research and answer the following question:

=What is the difference between advertising methods used in the real world and the virtual world. Please explain. =

There are simulates and differences between advertising methods used within real world versus visual world. Advertisement appears almost everywhere in any form especially booming from a multi-media perspective. The virtual world includes The main difference between virtual world and real world advertisement is the interactive aspect. An individual will most likely encounter an advertisement on the virtual world alone, within the private sphere. Therefore, advertisements within the visual world are even more focused on the individual and I imagine it to be like a conversation between the the virtual world and the user themselves. Advertisements on the internet directs the audience to interest or information within the realm of the web. For example, I have noticed advertisements for online games only appearing on the internet to be more targeted to the individual. Advertisements for online games in real life however are targeted to the general public, more age specified, and it seems to more appropriated to be viewed by the general public/ or a group of people. Thus, understanding that when an individual surf the internet, it is usually an independent activity. Advertisers on the visual world uses different ways of communication to catch the audience's attention by making it seem like the advertisements relates to the individual more personally.

So far, taking course in the CCIT program, most of our studies are based on advertisements in real life. It would be interesting to find an academic stand for advertisements in the virtual world.
